His Most Dangerous Addiction Chapter 28
The sound of the front doors slamming shut echoed through every corner of the mansion.It wasn't just loud.It was final.For a brief moment, everyone inside the library stood frozen, listening as the footsteps below multiplied. Whoever had entered the house wasn't trying to stay hidden anymore. Heavy boots struck the marble floor one after another, moving with purpose, spreading throughout the first floor like they already knew the layout.William walked to the library entrance and looked down the dim hallway. The darkness made it impossible to see beyond the staircase, but he could hear voices.Low.Calm.Organized."They're splitting up," Rafael whispered.William nodded once."They're searching room by room."Thea instinctively held the leather folder against her chest while the cassette tape remained in her other hand. Those two items suddenly felt heavier than anything she had ever carried.Viktor's expression remained unreadable, but his eyes never left the hallway."We don't h

Darkness consumed the mansion.For a few seconds, nobody moved.The rain continued pouring outside, its heavy rhythm becoming the only sound that remained after the lights disappeared. The antique lamp on the library desk flickered once before dying completely, leaving the room illuminated only by the occasional flash of lightning from the windows.Thea immediately tightened her grip around the cassette tape.William noticed."Stay behind me."She looked at him."No."His eyes narrowed slightly."Thea.""I'm not hiding in my father's house while people walk inside."Her voice was calm, but he could hear the fear underneath it.Not fear for herself.Fear of losing another piece of her past.Before William could answer, Rafael moved toward the door."Arguing can wait. We have company."Everyone became alert.The footsteps outside were getting closer.Slow.Controlled.Whoever was walking through the mansion wasn't trying to hide.That was the most concerning part.People who came with b

Rain finally began falling over Quezon City.The old mansion echoed with the steady rhythm of water striking its roof, turning the silence inside into something even heavier. The leather folder remained open on the library desk, its pages spread beneath the dim glow of a single antique lamp that Rafael had managed to get working with a portable battery.No one touched the documents.No one knew where to begin.Thea remained standing in front of her father's portrait, her fingers wrapped tightly around the letter addressed to her. She had read it twice already, yet every sentence seemed to carry a different meaning each time she looked at it.William watched her quietly.She hadn't cried.That worried him more than if she had.People who carried grief for years often forgot how to let it out."You should sit," he said softly.Thea slowly shook her head."If I sit, I'll think.""And what are you doing now?"She looked at him with tired eyes."Trying not to."Neither of them spoke after

For several minutes, nobody said a word.The library had become suffocating, not because of the dust or the silence, but because every page inside the folder seemed capable of rewriting everything William and Thea thought they knew about their families.William closed the file and placed it carefully on the desk."We're assuming every page is true," he said calmly. "That's our first mistake."Rafael looked relieved that someone had finally said it."Exactly. Whoever wrote this wanted someone to read it. That means it could be evidence, or it could be manipulation."Elena nodded slowly. "Your father always said the most dangerous lie is the one mixed with enough truth."Thea remained staring at her father's portrait."My father wrote those notes.""He did," William replied. "But that doesn't mean every document inside this folder came from him."That made everyone pause.William walked toward the large desk in the middle of the library. Years of dust covered its surface except for one

The words did not feel real at first.Never let William discover what he really is.The sentence stayed suspended in the air of the library like something unfinished, like a thought that should not have been written down but was anyway. William read it again in his mind even after Thea had stopped holding the page. Even after silence took over the room completely.Nobody moved.Nobody spoke.Even the mansion itself felt quieter, as if it had leaned in to listen.Thea was the first to break.“What does that mean?”Her voice came out smaller than before. Not scared exactly, but unstable in a way William had never heard from her.He didn’t answer immediately. His eyes stayed on the paper, on the handwriting that belonged to a dead man who somehow still managed to control the room.Elena took a step back.“I don’t like that line,” she whispered.Rafael exhaled sharply.“Yeah, no kidding.”But William didn’t react to them.Because his mind had already started working in a different directi

The mansion seemed quieter when they walked back inside.As if it had been waiting.The grand entrance remained dimly lit by moonlight slipping through the tall windows. Dust floated lazily through the air, and every step echoed against the marble floor. Outside, Orlov and his people stayed where they were. Nobody followed.Nobody tried to stop them.That somehow felt stranger than violence.William walked beside Thea without saying anything. Rafael and Elena followed a few steps behind, both unusually silent.Everyone was thinking about the same thing.Their fathers had known each other.They had worked together.Orlov had known both of them.And somehow all of it had remained hidden for years.Nothing made sense anymore.Thea suddenly stopped walking.William looked at her.She was staring toward the staircase."I remember this place."Her voice sounded distant.She wasn't talking to anyone in particular."My father used to sit there."She pointed toward the bottom steps."He'd read

The silence left behind by Orlov’s call felt heavier than any threat William had faced before, not because the conversation frightened him, but because it clarified everything. There were no more assumptions now. No more fragmented patterns or indirect pressure meant to test reactions. The structur

I don’t like surprises.That’s the first thing people usually learn about me. The second is that I don’t forgive them.“Sir, we just received the updated report.”I didn’t look up from the tablet in my hand. “You’re ten minutes late.”“I know. The delay came fr

I don’t believe in fate.I believe in timing, leverage, and control.That’s how I built everything.My name is William Torecampo. If you’ve heard it, it’s probably because of money. Or power. Or something that made people uncomfortable enough to remember me. I don’t min
